McCain's Memories (Silhouette Intimate Moments No. 785) (Intimate Moments, No 785)

by Maggie Simpson

Published 1997ISBN 978-0-3730-7785-4

McCAIN WASN'T A MURDERER, BUT Defense attorney Lauren Hamilton had a weakness for sexy bad boys, and her latest client certainly fit the bill. Helplessly drawn to accused killer Jon McCain, she believed his claim of innocence and that he really had forgotten his past. Still, she sensed the disoriented cowboy was hiding something . WHO WAS HE? Jon couldn't tell his beautiful lady lawyer everything. Though he knew he wasn't capable of murder, he had regained some memories, and they were proving much more disturbing than the prospect of a life sentence. For these flashes of his past could make a future with Lauren impossible.

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Romance, Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

Preview the edition to decide how it fits your available reading time.

Begin with its place in Romance, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. What must each character learn before the relationship can become believable?
  2. How do work, family, friendship, or identity shape the central relationship?
  3. Does the emotional resolution feel earned by the choices that came before it?
